We consider an inverse problem for a Westervelt type nonlinear wave equation with fractional damping. This equation arises in nonlinear acoustic imaging, and we show the forward problem is locally well-posed. We prove that the smooth coefficient of the nonlinearity can be uniquely determined, based on the knowledge of the source-to-solution map and a priori knowledge of the coefficient in an arbitrarily small subset of the domain. Our approach relies on a second order linearization as well as the unique continuation property of the spectral fractional Laplacian.

  1. An Inverse Obstacle Problem for the Fractional Schr\"odinger Equation

    math.AP 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A countable family of scaled exterior measurements of the fractional Schrödinger obstacle problem determines the nonnegative potential throughout the domain.

  2. A Calder\'on type inverse problem for the active scalar equations with fractional dissipation

    math.AP 2024-12 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    If two active scalar equations with fractional dissipation produce the same observations on a small open set, their nonlocal drift operators must agree on the whole exterior, according to the paper's main theorem.
